Are you interested in socializing with Black Ops players your age but haven't been able to "weed out" all the adolescent players? Have you been unable to join traditional, time-consuming clans because, being responsible adult, you have had to juggle your free time with going to college, taking care of children, or being employed in a full time job? In short, are you interested in an online experience akin to "shooting the bull" with a group of drinking buddies? If so, then Black Ops Gunslingers is the right place for you!

CLAN FEATURES

The Gunslingers experience is as simple and non intrusive as joining up with other adults your own age and playing some Call of Duty: Black Ops at your convenience. For those of you who like to take part in activities, events, and communications beyond that simple formula, we offer several popular, optional features as well:

A frequently asked questions section has been added to the end of this post to help address questions by new members. Below are the questions we most often hear. Contact any GS Leader if your question has not been addressed below.

1. Are you all really adults who play COD?
-Yes. We are all at least 18 years of age or older. Every friend code for the game and every feature or event we host is exclusively for mature gamers.

2. What do I need to do to join?
-Just be at least 18 years of age and register an account in our forums. That's it!

3. Do you have a KDR requirement?
-Nope. Just come to have a good time.

4. Do Gunslinger members voice chat with each other?
-Yes, we do, and quite often. Aside from in-game mic systems, we also use Skype, which is free download software. If Skype is not possible, we also directly offer Voice Chat that has no big software downloads and no log-in requirements.

5. Is Voice Communication required?
-No. Personally I like to strategize, yell with or simply gab with other members while playing, but some members like to keep the mic off and just shoot. Whatever you prefer!

6. Do I need to quit my present clan to be part of Gunslingers?-No. Never. Gunslingers is a nonexclusive community experience.

7. If I am also part of another clan, am I still a full fledged GS member?-Yes. Absolutely. Every member of Gunslingers enjoys the same benefits and access to features and events.

8. What is the best browser to use while visiting http://www.gunslingergaming.com?-Our clan's homesite works well in both Firefox and Internet Explorer. We do urge people to keep up to date with your browser updates because versions, particularly with Firefox, which has had issues with displaying i-framed flash applications.

9. How many members comprise the Gunslingers?-Currently, the entire Gunslingers community has over 800 registered members.

10. Am I going to have problems finding people to game with at your clan during the times I play if I am not based from the United States?-We have members from England, Australia, Ireland, Scotland, Mexico, Canada, Finland, Denmark....well, you get the idea. While the founder of the Gunslingers is based out of the United States, many of our members are from all over the globe. As one of our new members once exclaimed, "We are the clan that never sleeps!"

I just wanted to say that anyone that has MWR should join in on the drunken good times! Get hammered with us on Frosty Pints night every saturday as we gear up for Black Ops! The sooner you join the sooner you realize what youve been missing your whole adult drunken life.

BobaFett brings up a good point. Over at the Gunslingers, we aren't quietly waiting for the release of Black Ops. We are enjoying the Call of Duty titles already out! Throughout the week, we are still playing COD: Modern Warfare 2 (on both the PS3 and Xbox360), COD: Modern Warfare Reflex, COD: World at War, and even a Flash version of Call of Duty 2 in our custom built GS Arcade.

Every Friday and Saturday are Frosty Pints. Just as it sounds, it is when we crack open some brews, get on mic, and enjoy killing while BSing with fellow adults.

So, if you are an adult looking for a group in your age demographic who are excited for Black Ops and are enjoying the current COD titles in the meantime, there is no better hoome for you than with the Gunslingers.

I played a little earlier this time around, so great games, Freddy (yes, THE Freddy), 4thMason, Kinney, Scars, Steve, and several others I am blanking on at the moment (sorry, peeps!).

In Reflex related news, the focus of the Tournament Sunday events has once again cycled itself back to Reflex this coming Sunday (June 13th, 2010). Sweat out that hang over from Saturday's Frosty Pints in a friendly Free-For-All tournament with your GS friends.

Like I said before, we aren't sitting on our hands while we wait for the release of Black Ops. We are enjoying the current Call of Duty games in the meantime!

In fact, this coming Sunday (June 20th, 2010) we are holding a Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Tournament for our Playstation 3 members. Find out more HERE:

First of all, great games during Frosty Pints this weekend. I can't even count all the people online slinging their fully automatics upon the battlefield....and the booze isn't entirely to blame. LOL Thanks once again for making our group such a success and fun!

Secondly, congratulations to Don't Shoot for narrowly avoiding GS Team, Controlled Chaos, from stealing Das Boot away from them during this weekend's Bar League match. It even had to go into a double tie-breaking round, which has only occurred once before!

Thirdly, today's Sunday Tournament featured Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (PS3). Congratulations to Forming for winning! The rounds largely consisted of pistol and knife fights, so it was quite chaotic!

Lastly, but far from least important, The Gunslingers is officially 600 members strong! A perfect milestone as we celebrate our 3 Year Anniversary as a group this month!

All of the above (and so much more not mentioned) occurred in just the last few days at the Gunslingers, so, if you are a casual, mature adult looking for a gaming group that treat the gaming experience akin to hanging out with a bunch of drinking buddies after work, I invite you visit Gunslinger Gaming.
